Let's divide 48497256 by 472
We want to divide 48497256 by 472.

Step 1:
The number 472 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 472

Advancing to step 2:
48 divided by 472 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 484 / 472

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 484 by 472, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 472 from 484 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 472

On to step 4:
If we divide 129 by 472, we get 0 and a remainder of 129.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 129 leaves us with 129.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 129, then repeat: 1297 / 472

Going ahead to step 5:
472 goes into 1297 2 times with a remainder of 353.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 102.0
Subtract 944 from 1297 to get 353.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 353 and continue with: 3532 / 472

Step 6:
When dividing 3532 by 472, we get 7 with a remainder of 228.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1027.0
If we take 3304 away from 3532, we end up with 228.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 228, then carry on: 2285 / 472

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2285 by 472, we get 4 with a remainder of 397.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10274.0
If we take 1888 away from 2285, we end up with 397.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 397, then carry on: 3976 / 472

Step 8:
When dividing 3976 by 472, we get 8 with a remainder of 200.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 102748.0
Deduct 3776 from 3976 and we're left with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 472 fits into 2000 4 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 102748.4
Deduct 1888 from 2000 and we're left with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 472 fits into 1120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 102748.42
If we take 944 away from 1120, we end up with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 1760 by 472, we get 3 with a remainder of 344.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 102748.423
If we subtract 1416 from 1760, we get 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
3440 divided by 472 is 7 with a remainder of 136.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 102748.4237
Subtracting 3304 from 3440 leaves us with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 472 fits into 1360 2 times, leaving a remainder of 416.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 102748.42372
If we subtract 944 from 1360, we get 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
472 can be fit into 4160 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 384.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 102748.423728
If we subtract 3776 from 4160, we get 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Step 15:
472 can be fit into 3840 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 102748.4237288
Subtracting 3776 from 3840 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 102748.4237288 and a remainder of 6.4e-07.
